Here's the finished Sherman's March quilt that is now on it's way back home. Don't we all love our personal quilt holders?
Last night was a sleepless night for me. I woke about 3am and fired up the computer in hopes I'd find sleep soon thereafter. As I was reviewing my email subject lines I was seeing words like "Congrats!", "You lucky devil" and "YIPPEE." What little sleep I had in my eyes I could see I apparently won something my mind was racing. What had I won?!OMG!! I feel so lucky to have won three GO! dies from Tonya's Sewing Room and Accuquilt! Do you think I would be able to go back to bed to sleep now?! Who can sleep after receiving this awesome news!
The photo was taken from Accuquilt. I've requested Winding Ways, Rose of Sharon and Hexagons as my die selection.
Today is Friday! On Friday at the Accuquilt Facebook page they give away a GO! for simply filling out the survey with your answer to a random question they ask. The winner is always sent an email on Friday afternoon to tell them if they have won. What are you waiting for? Get over there and enter!!!

Applause, applause - the quilt is finished and heading home. And, drum roll inserted for drama, you won some GO! dies - woohoo!!! Just going to send you my fabrics so you can GO! cut for me. LOL
Congratulations on the new dies for your GO Mary! Have fun! I would have chosen the same ones (if I had a GO AND if I had won.)
WOW, great job on the quilt and a big congratulations on being a winner. I should get my GO next week and I am excited to give it GO!
Congrats!! Can't wait to see what you make with them! You are one lucky lady!
oh and that quilt is just stunning, you did an amazing job on the quilting!
I love that quilt, it reminds me of Christmas.
I have to go through my books and find something nice, but simple to make for a christmas quilt.

Lucky duck!
Beautiful quilt! Congratulations on your win...very exciting...I was awake at 2:30 and think I went back to sleep somewhere around 4...we should have gotten together...LOL!
Your quilting really finishes off this quilt. The owner should be very pleased. Congratulations on your winnings. I keep trying to win a GO! and have already completed the survey - fingers crossed, toes crossed, prayers sent forth, etc!
Ughhh! I hate sleepless nights and they are happening all to frequently for me. Busy, crazy mind I guess!
Anyway, congrats on winning the dies! I know that you will put them to good use. Someday, someday I will show up on your doorstep to use them :0)
Take a NAP,

You have been nominated to receive the Sunshine Award! Check it out at http://straystitches1.blogspot.com/2010/09/is-brunch-breakfast-food.html
Great looking quilting! That pattern reminds me of Bonnie Hunter's mystery quilt from a couple years ago--must be the chain of squares.
Congrats on winning more dies--that is awesome. I've jumped over and entered today's giveaway, thanks for the reminder :)
Wow! Is Sherman stunning! :-D It was pretty on the rack, but the total effect is really wonderful; great work there!
Is that a prize to DIE for?!?! (Snort!) Congrats! I'd seen the Accu entry on FB early this morning! I'm hoping for a GO myself -- and I thought sure I was too "old school" for it. But having seen hexies and winding ways and little baskets...Yeah, gotta have one! Gonna try to win it!
Blessings!

Wow, I'm starting to wish that a little of your luck would rub off on me, lol! Are you Irish by any chance, lol! (Think luck of the Irish). Congratulations for you! I can hardly wait to see what you do with these dies.
Mary, I saw yesterday that you had won but didn't email you as I was waiting for you to be surprised, LOL. Congratulation my friend. I hope you get your new dies soon and are able to enjoy them to the fullest. The finished quilt is overwhelmingly beautiful Mary, you amaze me. Hugs coming your way!
Yahoo to you! Lots of people are getting these and they look fun! Can't wait to see what you create with the new patterns.
Congrats!!! I bet you were giddy! Jenn
Fantastic! I wouldn't be able to sleep after that, either! I would be waiting for my UPS man every day, going crazy! Congrats!
Congratulations on the win and the quilt is beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing this exciting news. Carolyn

The quilt is absolutely wonderful. If you haven't already posted it could you accidentally put my name and address on the box please?
Many congratulations on your win, that's absolutely wonderful news. I saw it this morning (UK time) but didn't email in case I spoiled a surprise or anything. Anyway, I'm thrilled for you.
Congratulations!
The quilt is just wonderful! I had to go searching for the pattern because I love it so much!!
Congratulations on the GO! dies. I'm still hoping to get a GO! one of these days.
Congratulations, Mary! Sounds like you're going to have a lot fun with your new dies. I still don't have a GO, but hope to some day.
I really am tickled that you won the free dies at Tonya's giveaway! Good choices you made, too. OH, yes, the finished quilt looks very nice, too!
OMG . . .we are just going to have to share some ideas together. I picked the Rose of Sharon, too. Maybe a Rose of Sharon work day!!
